WE WILL MONITOR THE SITUATION. ALSO NEW TONIGHT, A 10-YEAR- OLD STOCKTON BOY IS RECOVERING AFTER THE POLICE SAY HE WAS STABBED MULTIPLE TIMES BY HIS STEPFATHER. THEY ALSO SAY HE COULD HAVE DIED IF NOT FOR THE QUICK THINKING OF A POLICE OFFICER. THAT BOY IS BEING TREATED HERE AT THE UC DAVIS MEDICAL CENTER. THE POLICE HAVE NOT RELEASED HIS NAME, BUT HE IS A CRITICAL THOUGH STABLE CONDITION. IT COULD HAVE BEEN WORSE IF THE OFFICER DID NOT GET HIM THE HELP HE NEEDED. SURPRISING, NOTHING EVER HAPPENS HERE. PRETTY SAFE. THAT HAPPEN BEFORE 10:30 LAST NIGHT AFTER A FAMILY MEMBER CALLED SAYING THAT A CHILD HAD BEEN STABBED SEVERAL TIMES. ONE OF THE OFFICERS LOOKED IN THE LIVING ROOM AND SAW THE BOY'S UNCLE HOLDING HIM AND THE BOY WAS LEADING SEVERELY. -- THE BOY WAS BLEEDING SEVERELY. VETERAN OFFICER ANTHONY PERRY DECIDED HE WOULD HAVE TO QUICKLY CARRY THE BOY OUTSIDE. BEEN DOING SO, THE BOY CLENCHED TO THE OFFICER'S UNIFORM AND LOOKED HIM IN THE EYE AND SAID PLEASE DON'T LET ME DIE. THE BOY WAS LOSING CONSCIOUSNESS. ONCE HE REGAINED CONSCIOUSNESS, HE WAS ABLE TO THANK THE OFFICER. THE OFFICER WAS ABLE TO SAVE THIS BOY'S LIFE. JUST STAYING IN THE HOUSE MAYBE SECONDS OR MINUTES LONGER, SOMETHING COULD HAVE HAPPENED WORSE TO THAT BOY. CRACKS IN THE MEANTIME -- IN THE MEANTIME, THE POLICE HAD TO GO TO ANOTHER SEARS BEDROOM WHERE THE BOY STEPFATHER HAD BARRICADED HIMSELF. HE HAD MULTIPLE SELF-INFLICTED STAB WOUNDS. BOTH HE AND THE BOY WERE TAKEN TO THE HOSPITAL. THAT IS HIS JOB AND HE DID A WONDERFUL JOB SAVING THE KID. HOPEFULLY HE WILL BE ALL RIGHT. THEY ARE STILL INVESTIGATING A MOTIVE FOR THE STABBING. HE IS BEING HELD AT THE SAN JOAQUIN COUNTY JAIL.
